    1972 - 1981 Autobello Aria
    Small car. Great innovations.

    First showcased in 1971, the Aria was created as a replacement for the well-proven, but aging Piccolina. The car featured an innovative hatchback chassis, with a large tailgate in place of a bootlid, and a state-of-the-art drivetrain, where the engine, mounted transverse in front of the car, powered the front wheels via an end-on gearbox.
    With its wide range of powerplants and trims, from a basic 1.0L Standard model to a sporty 1.5L twincam Corse version, the car instantly captured the supermini market. Although less known today, it has since cemented its place in automotive history as the template for modern superminis and a pioneer of the car industry - much like its predecessor.



    Okay, now with the lengthy lore out of the way - Hello everyone and welcome to my latest project! The Autobello Aria: a supermini based on the Fiat 127, a car that took the world by storm and a mod more than 2 years in the making. It's got plenty of configs, parts, and a whole lot of fun. I hope you enjoy!

    Features:

    • Fully scratch-made 3d models and custom jbeam
    • Working animated wipers, with custom lua and sounds
    • 18 different configs
    • Dozens of parts
    • 4 engine options with different tuning parts
    • Mid-engine chassis with a motorbike engine swap
    • Full career mode support
    • 7 sets of high-quality wheels
    • Italian wackiness and tons of fun
    • And a lot more for you to enjoy!
    And a massive thank you to @Acrain7 for the tons of help he gave me when designing the interior :D


    Now, this car isn't perfect, and it has some issues, because sadly I am yet to become the greatest modder ever. Here are the ones that I'm aware of:
    • Stripped interior is purely visual and doesn't remove any weight - the car is light as is, and removing additional weight led to instability issues
    • Motorbike electric reverse isn't actually electric - this is because BeamNG's powertrain is really complicated and doesn't allow for this sort of stuff
    • Rear wheels can become wobbly when driving with handbrake on
    • The rear edge of the roof counts as a coupler for some reason - this is stupid but I have yet to find a clue why it exists.
    Still, if you find any bug, issue, or just want to discuss the mod, head over here:

    And also, to the people who reupload the mod on other sites - just make sure to credit me, as long as it's not a virus or something.



    Enjoy! :D

    Putting aside my dislike for foreign cars for a moment, the excellent quality of this mod is remarkable given that many other mods pale in comparison, regardless of whether they are paid or not.
